Chapter 62: The Lively Willow Village
"Xia He, I won't take you to Willow Village. You stayed and helped me do two big things. Early in the morning, Qiao Xiya ordered Chunling to pack her luggage, while she sat in the courtyard and called Xia He.
"Girl, you can say it." Xia He was not half unhappy that he couldn't go to Willow Village.
"In two days, you take two people to Xianyang and bring Mrs. back. After bringing the lady back, you take the portrait to the yamen and ask Lord Ding to help find the whereabouts of Wu Minchu's wife and daughter. In addition, the master's diet and daily life also depend on you. Qiao Xiya took Xia He's hand and explained carefully.
"Rest assured, girl." Xia He agreed.
"Girl, pack up, let's go." Chunling walked out with a baggage.
Xia He came to the door with Chunling and Qiao Xiya, and saw Mo Haoning riding a black horse with a smooth coat, and two carriages with Qiao San and Chu Yun were already waiting at the door.
"Girl, get in the car." Qiao San jumped out of the car and placed a footstool under the car.
"I heard that you won't go with you this time, you can take this." Chu Yun glanced at Mo Haoning, jumped out of the car, walked in front of Xia He, and handed Xia He a bag of pastries, "Last time, I saw the sweetness you ate, so I bought some more, but I don't know which one is more delicious than the one in Huizhou City." Chu Yun said, scratching his head a little embarrassed.
"Thank you." Xia He thanked him lightly, took the cake, and his cheeks were crimson.
"Xia He." Qiao Xiya lifted the curtain of the car window and shouted.
"The girl called me." Xia He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, and Qiao Xiya's voice came from his ears at the right time, "I...... I'll go first, you...... Be careful on your way. Regardless of whether Chu Yun heard his gnat-like voice or not, he turned around and ran.
"Be careful at home. Be extra careful at night. Qiao Xiya pretended not to see the shyness on Xia He's face, and told him seriously.
"Rest assured, girl." Xia He was deeply blessed, "Girls should also be careful on the road." ”
Qiao Xiya nodded and looked at Mo Haoning: "Let's go."
Xia He looked at the backs of everyone in the distance, and then looked down at the pastry in his hand, and blushed and heartbeat for a while.

Liushuzhuang in the western suburbs, in the west of Jin'an City, is a slightly larger village, although it is not as prosperous as Jin'an City, but after all, it is not too far away from Jin'an City, inns, restaurants, teahouses, restaurants, hospitals, all available.
When Mo Haoning, Qiao Xiya and the others arrived at Liushuzhuang, the sun was already setting.
"Chu Yun, you take your brothers to find an inn to arrange first, and we will go down this road to find a restaurant to eat something." Mo Haoning grabbed the silk reins, turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to Chu Yun, and took the reins of the carriage in Qiao San's hand, and walked slowly along the only street in Willow Village.
"Wang ......" As soon as Qiao Xiya opened her mouth, she saw Mo Haoning's eyebrows wrinkled imperceptibly, Qiao Xiya hurriedly changed her words, "Childe, what is on the carriage that Chu Yun is driving?" Qiao Xiya held back all the way, always wanting to ask, but never found a chance.
"It's those five." Mo Haoning pursed his lips and smiled.
Mo Haoning's voice landed, but Qiao Xiya's hair stood up, and it turned out that the five terrifying corpses and bones also came to Willow Village together.
"It's okay, Hatsuyun will arrange it." Seeing that Qiao Xiya was scared, Mo Haoning had to comfort, "Master Qiao said that Granny He is not good at talking, and I can't help it, according to Master Qiao, it is not easy to see my mother-in-law, and if I want her to go to Jin'an City to touch her bones, I am afraid it will be even more difficult, so I simply brought them and let my mother-in-law avoid the fatigue of driving and horses." ”
While talking, the carriage stopped in a lively place. Mo Haoning raised his eyes and saw that it was a restaurant the size of two or three faces, and there was a lot of people inside.
"Looks like this is the biggest restaurant in Willow Village." Mo Haoning turned around and said to Qiao Xiya in the car.
"A few of the guest officers are from out of town, right?" The shopkeeper saw the carriage and saw Mo Haoning's extraordinary bearing, and immediately greeted him warmly, "We are the largest restaurant in this Willow Village, don't say the chef's craftsmanship is Willow Village, even if you go to Jin'an City, you can also be one of the best, and the guest officer will try it?" ”
Mo Haoning didn't pay attention to the shopkeeper's words, but looked up and down at the restaurant in front of him, and then looked at the shops around him.
"The guest officer is here to find Granny He, right?" The shopkeeper took two more steps towards Mo Haoning.
"What did you say?" Mo Haoning's eyes met the eyes of the shopkeeper with murderous intent.
"Don't be angry," the shopkeeper smiled and took two steps back, "A few dignitaries like you came to our Willow Village to find Granny He, if it weren't for this, our Willow Village would not have been so lively." The shopkeeper paused and continued, "Don't worry, the little mouth is very strict. ”
"Hahaha, just keep your mouth tight." Mo Haoning laughed, patted the shopkeeper's shoulder heavily, and stuffed a silver coin into the shopkeeper's second-hand hand, "Then it's troublesome for the little brother to tell me where Granny He is." ”
"Master, you're embarrassed for me." The shopkeeper held the silver bill, looking at Mo Haoning in a dilemma, a piece of white silver was like a red-hot piece of iron, and it was not possible to take it, nor was it to take it.
"What? Think the silver is hot? Mo Haoning sneered.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood." The shopkeeper hurriedly explained, and put the silver coin into his arms, "It's just that the little one really doesn't know where this Granny He is......
"Then I'll give you the money for the drink." Mo Haoning smiled and walked into the restaurant.
"That'...... And what about the rest? The shopkeeper followed Mo Haoning's footsteps and chased in.
"The rest will be your reward." Mo Haoning's voice was almost drowned out in the noisy chatter and laughter of the diners.

"Wiped your ass clean?" The sun shines through the window lattice, and the light smoke rising from the incense burner fills the room with a faint fragrance. The person at the table of the Eight Immortals was holding a covered bowl, smelling the fragrance of tea. The light and shadow are dappled and the face is looked down upon.
"Don't worry, sir, according to the White Lady's orders, the medicine in the small porcelain bottle is all for them to eat." Hanging down by the door stood a man who looked like a butler.
"I don't know what has become of it." The tea in the gaiwan seemed to be very pleasant, and there was a clear hint of pleasure in the tone.
"Small...... "They didn't know what they were bitten by, and all that was left of them was a pair of skins, and finally the little ones saw a few white moths, which bit their throats and came out and disappeared." The butler's voice trembled uncontrollably.
"If only I couldn't be recognized!" The lid of the tea bowl closed with a "snap" of the voice, and the startled housekeeper was excited.
"Don't worry, master," the butler hurriedly bowed, "Don't say that others, even their own parents may not be able to recognize them." ”
"That's the best." The bowl was placed on the table, and the person at the table of the Eight Immortals let out a long sigh, "I hope Yan'er can give birth to the prince smoothly." Stand down, I'm tired. ”
